Compact implementation of SHA3-512 on FPGA
Alia Arshad, Dur‐e‐Shahwar Kundi, Arshad Aziz · 2014
In this work we present a compact design of newly selected Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA-3) on Xilinx Field Programable Gate Array (FPGA) device Virtex-5. The design is logically optimized for area efficiency by merging Rho, Pi and Chi steps of algorithm into single step. By logically merging these three steps we save 16 % logical resources for overall implementation. It in turn reduced latency and enhanced maximum operating frequency of design. It utilizes only 240 Slices and has frequency of 301.02 MHz. Comparing the results of our design with the previously reported FPGA implementations of SHA3-512, our design shows the best throughput per slice (TPS) ratio of 30.1.
